Kiln Drying Services

We offer lumber drying for customers in our solar-heated kiln!

Cost

  • We currently charge $.60 / board foot for stickering + a 1.5-2-week kiln cycle.

  • (Only $.50 / board foot if you sticker, or if it’s a 2nd continuous cycle without removal from kiln)

  • $100 minimum for small quantities

About the Process

Kiln drying is a complex science with many variables, especially in our (primarily) solar-heated kiln. Some lumber requires more than one kiln cycle—especially thicker pieces and denser hardwoods. We can moisture test your wood for free before and after a cycle, but we can't necessarily guarantee how many cycles will be needed in our kiln. Sunshine and day length can also be variables.
